Adding on to basements, attics, garages and unfinished spaces usually requires breaking through concrete or do- ing a major structural renovation that can compromise a home’s structural integrity. However, above-floor plumb- ing like macerating toilets and drain pumps can simplify home-improvement projects.
There are many above-floor toilets and other macerating- technology products on the market today. But not all mac- erating systems are created equal. If you’re planning to add an above-floor plumbing system to your home, here are six things to look for when purchasing a macerating pump sys- tem for a new addition or to replace an existing one.
QUALITY
Home renovations can be expensive. It may be tempting to opt for cheaper options, but they might cost you more if they break or cause damage to your home. This same principle applies when buying above-floor plumbing systems. While there are cheaper options out there, you’ll want to do your research and pick a product that is known for quality.
Where a product is made can significantly impact its quali- ty. In-house manufacturing means that a company can ensure the highest quality control possible, which isn’t guaranteed or easy to verify when manufacturing is outsourced.
Why does this matter? Knowing where your macerating pump comes from can tell you about the quality and reliabil- ity of the product. For example, a recognized brand of macer- ators such as Saniflo is made and assembled entirely in-house in France. These products are shipped to be distributed to the company’s headquarters in North America and then sold to professional installers through the company’s nationwide dis- tribution partners.
